Unfortunate both age and finance are against us as this is not a cheap adventure. At least reading about others helps calm the craving to some degree !"

Wendy says:
" I am fascinated with stories about Everest (probably because I can't imagine ever actually doing something like climbing a mountain so high that you risk your very life to do so). I read about this story when it first hit the news stands and it made me wonder what I would have done in the same situation...

DaBookLady says:
"I have always been fasinated by those that try to conquer climbing a mountain and this book gets into the whys and thoughts of those that do. I think that it would be a really good read to see why anyone would take such a risk to just make it to the top when it is so apparent that it good kill you. Many of the climbers seem to ignor the death threat that this moutain imposes upon them and to really read about their actual moments climbing it during the deadliest year will be exciting for me. I hope to win this contest if not I am sure going to buy this book. DaBookLAdy."
